Divabetic Explained

If you have clicked on this page, you are clearly wondering what a 'divabetic' is.

At times I admit, I can be a bit of a diva. And at all times, I am a diabetic. Throw the two together and there you have it, a 'divabetic'.

You should be aware that not all diabetics are divas. This is one of my many endearing personality traits (I joke) and I was a diva long before I was a diabetic.

The way I see it is diabetes is a part of my life, but it isn’t who I am. I am a girly girl through and through, with a stubborn and fiery personality, chuck in the occasional tantrum when I don’t get my way, and there you have it...a diva.

 I think there is a great stigma attached to being a ‘diva’ through celebrity press, but you’d be surprised how far my diva-ish ways have got me.

I’m very independent and determined, and if I want something, I give it my all to see it through.

This 'go get it' attitude has landed me with me an insulin pump, and this blog was created to document not only my experiences with this new technology, but also my life.
